Even though you like I signed up for an "unlimited" service, even we agreed to the original AUP which already had a fair use section. It just wasn't clearly defined what would be classed as outside "Fair Use" in the original AUP.
End of the day the sort of 24/7 use you are doing is a clear abuse of the system and other users in your area would be fully justified in suing NTL for NOT kicking you off the network or at least curbing your activity.
Without being funny the sort of highly excessive use being advocated by a few now actually ruins the case being made for an "Intelligent" fair use policy to be put in place.
Worse than that it actually helps NTL justify the current policy and lets them off the hook as regards reaching an intelligent and effective compromise. What we all need is a revised system which is fair to all whilst still helps maximise both potential usage and improves the overall quality of service.
